Chapter 740: Chapter 739: Giving Gifts_1 Chapter 740: Chapter 739: Giving Gifts_1 When the couple appeared, they commanded attention like luminous bodies, their very presence seemed to dim the color around them. Golden sunlight subtly cast upon them, and the woman’s hand that laid on the man’s arm was underlined by her extraordinarily striking, icy white fingertips.

Everyone was awestruck, their gaze almost forgot to waver.

Lin Sheng, inexplicably, felt a sudden sense of inferiority. Yet, amidst the focus landing upon Qiao Xiaren and Si Limo, she remained unflustered, maintaining a tranquil demeanor.

She had never imagined that she could feel inferior.

She had heard of Qiao Xiaren’s enthralling beauty, but now seeing it herself, the charm and aura she carried was like a pearl gradually illuminating.

It seemed inconceivable to Lin Sheng that Si Limo would bring his girlfriend so blatantly into the public eye.

Although they hadn’t openly admitted to Qiao Xiaren being his official girlfriend, there remained a subconscious dismissal.

They always regarded her as a transient figure, who could never truly remain by his side.

Lin Sheng’s father looked slightly disconcerted, but he masked it well.

“Uncle Lin,”

Si Limo handed over the gift his father had prepared, and the butler received it.

“Shengsheng, don’t forget to thank Limo.”

Lin Sheng, already back to her usual spirit, stepped forward with a smile. “Thank you, Mr. Si. May I open it now?”

Qiao Xiaren, standing at the side, flashed a dignified smile, “Of course, this is prepared especially for you, Miss Lin.”

Since Si Limo had no intention of speaking, Qiao Xiaren had to take charge. This made Lin Sheng feel a bit awkward.

“Let’s go.” Si Limo took her hand and headed straight to where the food was, their primary mission essentially was to indulge in the feast.

Qiao Xiaren responded affirmatively.

Upon seeing this, Lin Sheng’s father felt even more displeased.

Merely an actor from the entertainment world, looking down upon his daughter because she has gained some ability, an outrageous behavior.

Her joy wouldn’t last too long; it wasn’t easy to gain entrance into the Si family.

Unfortunately, if only he had seen how Qiao Xiaren dealt with Lan Lan and Old Master Lan, he wouldn’t have found her behavior today arrogant.

Meanwhile, Chen Wenwen was criticizing Qiao Xiaren again in front of Cao Tingye, “She must be quite audacious, to dare to appear at such an event, doesn’t she fear being an eyesore?”

“I surely may be an eyesore, but that’s decidedly better than certain people who enjoy gossiping behind someone’s back.”

Chen Wenwen was startled by the voice that suddenly approached, then saw Qiao Xiaren, champagne in hand, raising her glass slightly.

Si Limo wasn’t at Qiao Xiaren’s side, and for some unknown reason, she felt a sense of relief.

“Xiaren, don’t get angry. Wenwen was only speaking casually.” Cao Tingye quickly intervened, “She didn’t mean it, don’t take it to heart.”

“I don’t waste my energy getting angry with people I don’t care about.” Qiao Xiaren brushed back a loose strand of her hair, “However, I am curious about the pedestal from which Chen positions herself to condemn me. There’s a mirror here; why don’t you go take a look at yourself first?”

“Get lost!”

Wait, had she been so rudely dismissive towards Chen Wenwen? Qiao Xiaren paused and looked around. Indeed, the retort had come from somewhere else.

Si Limo’s eyes looked cold, standing next to him was a slightly bewildered Lin Sheng. She was utterly flustered, her face flushed, wishing she could disappear.
